Class GridCellTypeNameConverter
Implements a System.ComponentModel.TypeConverter class for CellType of the GridStyleInfo class.
Namespace: Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid
Assembly: Syncfusion.Grid.Windows.dll
Syntax
public class GridCellTypeNameConverter : TypeConverterRemarks
In its current implementation, the cell type name converter loads all cell types from the BaseStylesMap. So, in order to make new cell types appear in a property grid, BaseStylesMap provides a mechanism to register cell type names. TODO: Is this correct?
GridCellTypeNameConverter returns a list of cell types. If you display a GridStyleInfo in a System.Windows.Forms.PropertyGrid, you will be able to drop-down a choice list with cell types for the CellType property.
